    Man, I need to get back to the gym next week. We've had a very crazy week and I keep meaning to work out at home but it's not happening. No more procrastinating. I'm having a hard time dragging my (expanding) butt back on the wagon but it's slowly coming long... *sigh* This is so much harder than STARTING this change in the first place was.

    I've been bad today with water so I am going to guzzle a bunch before bed. I didn't get to the gym today but I have been cleaning all day and haven't stopped. Hopefully it burned some calories. I am usually a Saturday weigher so I am going to weigh on Saturday and then again on Monday for our challenge. I'm off to drink some water...gulp...gulp...

    2 cups of water in during my date with Leslie Sansone this morning, and I'm working on my third and fourth while eating a breakfast sandwich. So far so good!

    Drank allllll my water but definitely ate too much today too! Actually, the past two days I've gone over my calories. :( I am trying my best to make it through the weekend but they are always tough to stay on track.. :frown:

    I also won't be weighing myself on Monday because of lady issues that make me retain lots of water and crave lots of salt and sugar. Sorry to be such a disappointment..

    I feel like the black sheep of the group.
  • No worries, mlove. We've all had our difficulties with TOM!

    check in:
    water: 64
    I, too, really overate today. I feel so sick now I can't sleep! :grumble:

    Is anyone besides me excited for a brand new month?? I know its a terrible reason to be re-motivated, but at three years into this weight loss journey, anything works for me!

    Time to say goodbye to January and any let downs I had and hello to a new start. :]

    It's Monday for me so I guess we check in right? I had a disappointing weigh in this week. Only lost .5 lbs. I'm frustrated because I really kept within my calories all week and thought I would have a huge loss. I guess it is better than not losing or gaining. Weight loss seems to be slowing down for me. I am going to try for a great week with even more water and a couple extra trips to the gym. We'll see how it goes.

    I'm down 2 lbs from last week! If I can keep at this rate, my goal should be within reach. Great job everyone. :)

    Hey ladies! Down 1/2 pound here! Congrats to all the losers!

    Hi Amazons! I was UP three lbs this morning, but I tracked everything this week, only went over my calories a couple of times (and not by a lot), and I worked out every single day except one. I am bummed, but I am chalking it up to a freaky water retention thing because of working out more than usual. I know it's mathematically impossible for me to have gained 3 pounds of anything but water this week, so I'll just plan on an awesome weigh-in next week.

    Of course, this week I'll be on vacation, so we'll see how that goes...Yikes!
  • Well done ladies! Down 2 pounds here :) I guess bustin' my butt at the gym paid off!

    Congrats to all who lost this last week! I on the other hand did not even attempt the scale this morning. Horrible weekend!! My dh b-day so of course we went all out all weekend. The good thing is I worked out hard and burned quite a bit of it off! I will post weight tomorrow.

    Mlove-Yes I am very happy for February, a new month, new resolve! I hope anyway.

    Hope everyone is having a great Monday!

    First Monday weigh in, very frustrated I only lost 1/2 pound.:grumble:
    This is typical of how I loose, the only other plan I have ever tried was Weight Watchers and this was the pattern
    I have been at this for 27 days? and in all that time I have only had ONE day when I didnt get in 10 waters, and that day I still got 6 waters in.
    So H2O is all good, exercise is still a struggle. I have not gotten to the place where "I miss it" if I dont do it.
    I sure as heck dont miss it, I just feel guilty.
    Food, I was under every single day. I am struggling to eat all 1200 cals, sure I could have no problem eating 1200 cals of pizza, sweets, homemade baked goods , chips, etc. BUT to eat 1200 cals of healthy food is difficult for me. I am full.
    But my goal this week is to EAT all 1200 cals. even if I'm not hungry.
    Seems insane, but I have read everything about "starvation mode" and I can see now why I am slightly pudgy.
    I wasnt eating enough and what I did eat was high fat, deep fried , carbs or just plain YUMMY!

    Total loss for January : 4.5 pounds :sad:
